Yeah, women over age 50 don’t have daughters, granddaughters, nieces or female co-workers or younger friends. Moreno is revealing a key feature of MAGA: “I only think of myself.”

Ass clown extraordinaire.

Not to mention that a woman in her early fifties might get pregnant, and would be at high risk. These morons are totally clueless about basic human biology, among countless other subjects.

Moreno is perfect MAGA he simply cannot comprehend why anyone would have any interest in anything that doesn't directly effect them.

Handsy groper, rapist, and serial molester as "protector" of women? In whose universe is this a truism?

I think you meant to type "plaintive" not "plaintiff"

Sorry but ... the last paragraph under "Behold Trump's New Creeptastic Quotes On Abortion" under the subheading "Feeling Reassured?" uses the word "plaintiff" (one who brings a case to court) when the correct word should be "plaintive" (sad and mournful). OK, I'm being "picky" but I'm a retired editor, so sue me!

The most I can put together right now: evil is jaw dropping. That's not adequate, though.

Wrote Bernie Moreno on his website for office and asked that same question in one of the comments posted. Also repeated the question Kamala Harris posed to Kavanaugh during his confirmation.

Wowser David! A copy of the

Constitution from the 1700s!

Saw the original on display in

Washington, DC. And the

Declaration.

Moreno, Vance, Trump, so

many more...out of touch with

what women know, think and

care about.

I've got news for Bernie Moreno (OH): contrary to the GOP fixation that the only women who "count" are the fecund ones, women over 50 don't actually lose their capacity to think after menopause. We of course have children and grandchildren who still face the dangers of the draconian restrictions on abortion. But we also care about bodily autonomy for its own sake. It isn't impossible to imagine a society of "privatized Medicare" in which women are deemed ineligible for certain medical treatments as they age, simply because women live longer and it would really help the bottom line if they shoved off earlier.

Too fantastic? Consider Afghanistan, where the Taliban now doesn't let women SPEAK out loud in public from the depths of the burqa. That's motivated by religion, but ageism, patriarchy, hierarchy and profit can achieve similar results.

Younger women don't realize that until 1972 married women couldn't have credit cards or brokerage accounts in their own name. I discovered this personally upon my divorce--I turned out to have NO credit history nor any ability to manage the stock account we reserved for the kids' education because my social security number was not attached to either the card or the brokerage account, both set up in the 60s. My grandmother was widowed in 1933 and got a widow's pension in the grand sum of $10 a month, which never increased until she died in 1977.

The idea of women as helpless helpmates lasted WAY longer than Victorian times.

"You will be protected and I will be your protector" said the fox to the chickens.

Relegated to the kitchen, bedroom, nursery and backseat, women must vote en masse to avoid a continuance of this de facto situation. In the privacy of the voting booth vote your daughter's self preservation.

I clicked on the first video of this impotent orange dildo lecturing about immigrants. He supports Bernardo Moreno - an immigrant from Bogota Columbia who lectures women about abortion issues when he is clueless. What the fuck. Neither my wife nor I can stand to hear the voice of this turd/loser. Can we just vote him out and let him become bad fertilizer?
